Infinity is an elegant, cute and simple summer dress.
The dress is worked seamlessly from the top down and begins with the provisional cast-on. The neckline is shaped with short rows, at the same time the stiches for shoulder lines are increased. Once the short-row shaping is done, the fabric is joined to work in the round and worked to the desired length, increasing stitches for shoulder lines. Then the fabric is divided for the back and the front and is worked flat. After shaping the pleats and working the armholes, the underarms are shaped and the fabric is joined to work in the round to the desired length. When the elongated back is shaped, the ruffles and the wing sleeves are worked. Finally the neckline stitches are bound off.

Using this pattern you may knit a tunic or a top as well for kids or women.
